Early Scores Notches Rams Third Straight
Victory

Farmingdale State - 5, Staten Island - 0

Farmingdale, N.Y. - A goal by freshman forward
Katrina Cerverizzo (Center Moriches, N.Y./Center Moriches) just
three minutes in, proved to be the eventual game-winner for
Farmingdale State, in today's 5-0 non-conference women's soccer
victory over the College of Staten Island. The Rams improved to 5-8
with the win, their third straight, while the Dolphins fell to 3-6
overall.

The Rams led 2-0 at the half, after a score by junior forward
Monica Grisales (Brentwood, N.Y./Brentwood), assisted by junior
midfielder Trish Pickford (Massapequa, N.Y./Massapequa).

In the second, freshman midfielder Brittany Williams
(Massapequa, N.Y./Massapequa) would make it 3-0 with the assist
from Grisales, before sophomore midfielder Anna-Marie Rivera (Bay
Shore, N.Y./Brentwood) tipped in a pass in front from freshman
forward Julianne Cicio (Lindenhurst, N.Y./Holy Trinity) for a 4-0
edge. Cerverizzo added her second of the day with seven minutes
remaining for the final tally.

Farmingdale State held Staten Island to just four shots in the
game, and freshman goalkeeper Amanda Maass (Mastic Beach,
N.Y./William Floyd) needed to make just two saves in her third
shutout of the season. Staten Island's senior goalkeeper Tina
Bellochio (Staten Island, N.Y./St. John Villa) made 14 saves in
defeat.

The Rams will now play at Purchase College on Friday, October
10th in a conference game at 7:00 p.m.
